Grandmas are the best. They always have candy, they are awesome cooks, and they say “yes” when mom and dad say “no.” They have a way of snuggling into grandkids hearts and give their unconditional love day in and day out. If there’s ever anyone on your side, grandma will be among the first to step up in line.

And then there’s the gifts. Most of the time, grandma nails it. If she can afford it, the grandchild’s wish is her command. But then there’s those grandmas that have a mind of their own. Whether they just don’t really understand what they are buying or they just misinterpret entirely the taste of their grandkids – sometimes these gifts leave their families with scratching their heads and bursting out in laughter.

We’ve collected 70 of the funniest “grandma fail” gifts ever given – get ready to laugh along with the grandkids who received them.

1. No One Is More Prepared For Winter

This sweet grandma is from Florida and therefore doesn’t experience harsh winters. She must be extra worried for her grandson who lives much farther north in Boston. Now, thanks to his thoughtful grandma, he is more than prepared for any cold weather that comes his way.

2. Grandma Knows What He Likes

Grandma wanted her grandson to have a new coffee mug for work. And she took some time to put extra thought into it telling him, “You know, because it looks like poop and I know you think that’s funny.” The look on his face says it all.

3. Baby, It’s Cold Outside

That is, if you consider 80 degrees to be cold. Perhaps at age 94, this great-grandma senses temperature differently than the rest of us. Whatever the case, she made it for her grandson because she said it was too cold. Perhaps she was thinking ahead for the season change, which in that case he will be quite stylish.

6. Grandma Stress Reliever

This is one incredibly sweet grandma. When her grandchild briefly mentioned they were stressed about a money situation, she did what she could. While this $8 may not go far in today’s money, the sentiment behind it is priceless.

7. Looks Like We’ve Got Another Mystery On Our Hands

This grandma sent this as a birthday gift to their adult grandchild who gladly reports they plan on proudly taking it to work to carry their lunch. I think they will be the grooviest kid in the breakroom.

8. When You Ask Grandma For A New Hat . . .

She does not disappoint. This talented grandma not only delivered a hat that exceeds all expectations, she even made a matching one for the baby. Though, we aren’t sure how impressed he is with that facial expression he’s sporting.

10. A Flattering Neckline

His 84-year-old grandma apologized for wearing her nightgown in front of the family. Naturally, being the good grandson he is he told her it was no problem and actually looked very comfortable. Not missing a beat, grandma went and fetched one for him to wear. Let’s give this grandson some high five points – and granny too. I mean, this nightgown does flatter his neckline after all.

11. Ready To Party

This stylish grandson is now ready for a night out on the town. He opened up a box that came in the mail from his 90-year-old grandma who had made him this vest that he could wear to parties. No doubt he will be the center of attention.

12. She Gets It, Man

It was his birthday and what better present could a grandson get from his loving grandma. He seems pretty pleased overall as he snaps this selfie with the caption, “She gets it, man.” Though it’s hard to put into words, we have to agree. If nothing else, it’s certainly an unforgettable present.

13. “Matching” Socks

Well . . . kind of. They do match in color and style, but everything else seems a little off. But it will work great if he’s the kind of person where one leg tends to get a little colder than the other.

14. A Guinea Pig Christmas

15. Christmas Alligator

This granddaughter has a suspicion that her grandmother likes to give gag gifts on purpose but act innocently about it. It’s a creative gift where the alligator eyes light up in a swimming pool as it floats around. There’s just one problem, this granddaughter doesn’t own a pool . . .

20. Embroidery + Meme = Awesome

This grandma must keep up on popular internet meme’s recreating Nyan Cat for her grandchild. No doubt every time these towels get used, a big smile will ensue. This grandma combined her old school talent with popular culture and won her grandchild’s heart.

21. Andrew Jackson Photo Album

At first glance, it appears this grandma took the time to make a memorable album for her granddaughter’s graduation. Imagine her surprise when she opens it up to find it full of identical “photos” of Andrew Jackson’s face on each page. I think this is a gift everyone of us would enjoy getting.

22. So Close, Yet So Far

What’s true is her 7-year-old granddaughter asked for fingerless gloves with flowers on them. Grandma fulfilled her request . . . not sure who’s going to tell her those aren’t appropriate “flowers” for a 7-year-old.

24. Cats Rule

Well, at least they do in whatever universe they are planning to take over in this shirt. At least this grandson will be warning everyone of the impending doom with his awesome space cat shirt whenever he is brave enough to wear it.

25. Not So Yeezy Shoes

This grandchild says, “When grandma gets you Yeezy’s for Christmas.” Though some would agree perhaps they can rival the style of the popular Yeezy shoe, all will agree she spent significantly less money on them.

27. Cool Grandson

Grandma is clearly a fan of her grandson and picked out this card because the inside said he was “cool.” Although it could be argued this is not the traditional card a grandson might receive from his grandma.

29. A Purrfect Night’s Sleep

This 24-year-old reports, “My grandma believes this is an ‘acceptable’ blanket for a man my age to sleep under. I’m totally cool with it.” And why not, when grandma gives you a blanket, the most appropriate response is to sleep with it.

35. Think Twice Before You Challenge This Grandma

Grandma asked her grandson what he wanted for Christmas. Being the humorous guy he is, he answers “100 things from the Dollar Store.” Now, everyone knows he didn’t literally mean it. But . . . his wish is grandma’s command.
